I don't want to get into a soapbox but the same problems that plague 1.0 would plague 2.0, but we would have a pop. boom for probably 5 years. A unique "two box" classic pvp experience has yet to be replicated, with the guarantee of no wipes. Keep red 1.0, add red 2 box point 0. And you have a winner.

I've said it once I'll say it again, PVP isolates the community and makes grouping harder, everquest supported 2k to 3k active players on live, i've yet to play on a PVP server with those numbers. 2 boxxing makes leveling viable with all classes. the only people leveling meleers are no lifers or twink 2nd toons, which means leveling twice to level a melee toon as a casual player.

We have seen the classic PVP experience die, we have yet to test a true no wipe PVP server with classic code AND 2 boxxing, i believe its the key to longevity despite manys argument otherwise.

I can never be as bad as red's first year launch.

One: No xp loss unless the devs have lost their minds. Makes low-level pvp relatively fun and light. Cant really grief. First year might see a pop increase instead of loss because of that lack of grief. Might get an influx of blue and green over lawyer quest. I love the idea of keeping your shit on death but 99% wont happen here.

Two: Some of the more toxics might have learned a lesson that you need a pop to have a healthy server. Some will always remain but yea.
